the Conch is destroyed along with Piggy
Page 181 " The rock struck Piggy a glancing blow from chin to knee; the conch exploding into a thousand white fragments and ceased to exist."
Piggy is holding it up for order, and then Rodger leans all his weight onto the lever, than causes a bolder to fall; killing Piggy, the symbol for the adult world, and destroying the conch, the symbol for civilization. Jack then states that since there is no conch, then their tribes doesn't exist, he then proceeds to declare himself chief and tries to kill Ralph with his spear.
